For me the CPU usage is dependent on the size of the System Monitor window. At its normal size, it consumes 0-20% of a single CPU. At, say, 1000 x 1000, it (well, Xorg) consumes 50+% of one and 100% of the other, maxing Xorg very unresponsive. xorg.conf paste below -- quite vanilla -- I haven't touched it >>>>>>>>> Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Generic Keyboard" Driver "kbd" Option "XkbRules" "xorg" Option "XkbModel" "pc105" Option "XkbLayout" "us" EndSection Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Configured Mouse" Driver "vmmouse" EndSection Section "Device" Identifier "Configured Video Device" EndSection Section "Monitor" Identifier "Configured Monitor" EndSection Section "Screen" Identifier "Default Screen" Monitor "Configured Monitor" Device "Configured Video Device" EndSection Section "ServerLayout" Identifier "Default Layout" Screen "Default Screen" EndSection <<<<<<<<<< ** Attachment added: "Xorg.0.log" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/13137384/Xorg.0.log -- System monitor causes Xorg to consume 100% CPU https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/187383 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
